Prince of the Wind

Captured by enemies when he was just a boy, Riain Cree was nursed back to health by Suzanna de Viennes. Becoming obsessed with Riain, Suzanna, allying herself with the demon Raphian, has sworn that nothing will come between her and the man she loves. All Riain dreams of is to find a way to escape Suzanna’s obsession and to be with the woman he loves, the sorceress Maeve.

PRINCE OF THE WIND by Charlotte Boyett-Compo is a very dark tale of one insane woman’s obsession and the depths she will sink to in order to achieve her desire. Suzanna is a villainess that readers will love to hate and will wonder why she was not drowned at birth considering that even her father recognized her insanity. The things that this woman is capable of are disquieting and totally disgusting. In her own way, Suzanna is worse than the demon that she worships.

Riain, on the other hand starts out as a nice kid everyone loves and amazingly, considering all he is put through, grows to be a nice man. He is hard when he needs to be but gentle and kind to all that deserve it. His goodness draws to him some interesting allies such as the Windweaver and the love of Maeve, a powerful Sorceress in her own right. Riain has to be one of this reviewer’s favorite Reapers.

This reviewer highly recommends PRINCE OF THE WIND to any readers who love twisted tales of obsession and to any who love Reapers. Get your copy today as PRINCE OF THE WIND definitely deserves a place on your keeper shelf.
